Consider this blog post an early Christmas gift. Because Key Ministries is a gift to parents of kids with special needs…and for the churches that want to support them.

What Is Key Ministry?

Key Ministries was created by Dr. Steve Grcevich as a resource for churches. It equips them to support families with members who have special needs. According to their mission statement, “Key Ministry’s mission is to equip churches to welcome and include children and families affected by hidden disabilities in all aspects of the life of the church. We’re uniquely positioned to do this; our staff and volunteers are professionals in fields such as psychiatry, special education, psychology and ministry. We hope that the resources you discover here will be useful to you in ministry within your church and possibly within your family as well.”

Who Is Key Ministry?

You can read about the people who work at Key Ministries – Dr. Gcevich, Rebecca Hamilton, Harmony Hensley, and Katie Wetherbee – by visiting the staff page at www.KeyMinistries.org. After meeting Katie and Rebecca at a recent conference, I can tell you they are caring and compassionate professionals able to offer churches and parents tested and practical advice.

Key Ministry Is Free

While you’re at the staff page, surf the entire site. It is packed with resources and information. And it’s all free. That’s right, free. Pretty amazing, don’t you think? Be sure to visit Steve’s blog, Church 4 Every Child, where you’ll find enough reading material to keep you busy for a month. Then, cruise on over to Katie’s blog, which is full of tips about how to help kids with special needs succeed at Sunday school.
